It is a risky process, this love at first sight, before she has seen him In Bradstreet or Be baa seen her In carl papers. But then things do happen, and one Instance most form a theme for this story. though not, thank heaven, to the overshadowing of more vital and Important subjects, such as drink, policemen. horses and earldoms. During a certain war a troop calling Itself the Gentle Elders rode Into history and one or two ambuscades. The Gentle Riders were recruited from the aristocracy of the wild men of the wast and the wild men of the aristocracy of the east In khaki there Is little telling them' one from yanother, so they became good friends and comrades all around. Ellsworth Bemsen, whose old Knickerbocker descent atoned for his modest rating at only ten millions, ate his canned beef gayiy by the campfires of the Gfigtle Eiders. The war was a great lark to him, so ^hat he scarcely regretted polo and planked shad. s One of the troopers was a well set ; up. affable, cool young man who celled t himself O'Roon. To this young man Bemsen took an especial liking. The two rode side by side during the famous mooted uphill charge that was disputed so hotly at the time by the j Spaniards and afterward by the Democrats. After the war Rem sen came back to his polo and shad. One day a well , set up. affable, cool young man disturbed him at his club, and be and ( O'Roon were soon pounding each other ( and exchanging opproblous epithets , after the manner o( long lost friends. O'Roon looked seedy and out of luck , and perfectly contented. But It seem- ] ed that his content was only apparent "Get me a job, Bemsen," he said. "I've Just banded a barber my last shilling." "No trouble at all," said Remsen. j "I know a lot of men who have banks i kand stores and things downtown. Any , particular Hue you fancy?" , "Yes." said O'Roon, with a look of | "1 took a walk in your CenI tral park this morning. I'd like to be , . one of those bobbles on h<BBeback.

And they , | who were not above looking at mount- , ed policemen might have seen a well < set up. affable, cool young man on a ' prancing chestnut steed attending to , | duties along the driveways of tbfe park. j And now. at the extreme risk of weai rylng old gentlemen who carry leather j fob chains nnd elderly ladles who— but. ! no: grandmother herself yet I brills st foolish, immortal Romeo— there must a hint of love at first sight It came Just as Remsen was strolling j Fifth avenue from his club a few ! doors away.

Not even a wine agent would dare do It. But these two were of no consequence except perhaps for the guiding of the machine nod the paying * for It. At the old gentleman's side sat r pomegranate blossoms, more exquisite than the first quarter moon viewed at twilight through the tops of oleanders Remsen saw her and knew his fate i could have flung himself under ' the very wheels that conveyed her. but I he knew that would Is? the last means i of attracting the attention of those ! who ride In motor cars Slowly the I auto passed and. If we place the poets i above the autolsts. carried the heart of with It Here was a large city 1 of millions and many women who at a certain distance appear to resemble pomegranate blossoms. Yet he hoped I to see her again, for each one fancies 1 that his romance has Its own tutelary j j guardian and divinity t I.ucklly for Remsen's peace of mind. : [ there came a diversion in the guise of | t a reunion of the Gentle Riders of the ! * city There were not many of them, i e perhaps a score. aDd there were wassail , and things to eat aDd speeches, and c the Spaniard was bearded again In I recapitulation. And when daylight j C tbem the survivors prepared ' b to depart. But some remained upon i T the battlefield. One of these was IO'Roon. who was not seasoned I g to |>otent liquids. Uls legs declined to | p the obligations they had sworn ' C to the police department. g "I'm stewed. Remsen." said O'Roon : b to his friend- "Why do they build ho- t: tels that go round and riftxui like rath- f. shield and break me.

So Remaen trotted ; down the bridle paths, enjoying hlm- , self hugely, ao few real pleasures do . ten -millions Ires bare. Along toe driveway In the early morning spun a victoria drawn by a pair of fiery bays. There was something foreign about the affair, for the " park Is rarely used to the morning except by dnlmpoijant people who love to be healthy, poor and wise. In the ' vehicle eat an old gentleman with ' snowy side whiskers and a 8cotcb ptkld cap which could not be worn while ' driving except by a personage. At his aide sat. the lady of Remsen's heart— the lady who looked like pomegranate ' blossoms and the gibbous moon. Remsen met them coming. At the * instant of their passing her eyes look- > ed into his, and but for the, ever eow- : ard heart of a true lover he could have ■worn that she flashed a faint pink. , trotted on for twenty yards and ' then wheeled his horse at the sound of runaway hoofs. The bays bad I bolted. Remsen sent his chestnut after the ' victoria like a shot There was work cut out for the impersonator of Police1 man O'Roon. The chestnut ranged alongside the off bay thirty seconds after the chase began, rolled his eye ' back at Bemsen and said in the only open to policemen's horses: "Well, yon duffer, are you going to ; do your share? You're not O'Roon, It seems to me if you'd lean to the ' right you could reach the reins of that foolish, slow running bay. Ah, you're ' all right! O'Roon couldn't have done it more neatly." The runaway team was tugged to an lngl5rioog halt by Remsen's ti»ugb muscles. The driver released his hands from the wrapped reins, jumped from his scat and stood at the heads of the ' team. The chestnut approving his new rider, danced and pranced, reviling equlnely'the subdued bays. Remsen, was dimly conscious of a vague. Impossible, unnecessary old 1 gentleman in a Scotch cap who talked Incessantly about something. And he was acutely conscious of a pair of violet eyes that wquld have drawn St Pyrftes from his Ron pillar, or whatever the allusion Is. and of the lady's smMe and look— a little frightened, but a look that with the ever coward heart of a true lover, he could not yet construe.
